Mauritania vs Burkina Faso Prediction: Expect goals in this one

A friendly match between Mauritania and Burkina Faso will take place at the Stade Larbi Zaouli in Morocco. Both teams will enter this competition with the intention of securing a crucial victory for themselves. Let's dive into the intricacies of the contest, and then we can open up the betting chances.

Mauritania is the clear favorite to emerge victorious given their current winning streak of three games in a row, and they have momentum working in their favor. Last month, the Lions of Chinguetti qualified for the 2023 AFCON by winning their matches against Sudan and Gabon. They defeated Madagascar by a score of 2-1 on Sunday, extending their winning streak to three games. Mauritania took the lead for the first time in that game thanks to a goal scored by Souleymane Anne after 28 minutes. Hemeya Tanji then added a second goal for Mauritania in the 73rd minute. However, despite Madagascar's Anicet scoring a goal in the dying minutes of that encounter, the win that Mauritania earned is a credit to their efforts. Mauritania will enter this game ranked 99th in the FIFA standings heading into it.

In the match that came before this one, which was part of the International Friendships competition, Burkina Faso and Equatorial Guinea played to a scoreless draw. Heading into this contest, Burkina Faso have found it difficult to secure a win in any of their last five matches. In fact, their best outcomes in those matches were three ties, with the two other teams coming against Togo and Eswatini, while they were defeated by Cape Verde and Morocco. Over the course of their past six matches, the attacking players from Burkina Faso have had to work hard to score goals, and their contributions have resulted in an unsatisfactory return of just 4. During those contests, the Stallions have seen a total of 11 goals scored against them by their rival teams.

Mauritania does not have a fantastic record in the matchup, but the way that they are playing right now puts them in a good position to pull up a win. Recent performances by the Lions of Chinguetti have demonstrated an impressive level of firepower, which means that the toothless Burkina Faso team will have a lot of work to do. Despite having some strong offensive alternatives at their disposal, the Stallions have failed to score in each of their last three matches. Expect it to be a competitive match, but the high-flying Mauritanians should emerge victorious.
